If you have only one matching commitment for your Media Campaign the Commitment will automatically be linked (Version 2.91 and up) when you create the campaign. If this Campaign is an exception, you can remove the lookup manually, otherwise you don't have to do anything.

Automated Mapping

Here is how it works: The system then looks up all active Commitments.

First it is matching the record types

  • Advertiser / Agency Discount or no record type will be mapped to the "standard" commitment field.
  • Agency Earnings Commitments will be mapped to the AE commitment field.
  • Third Party Commission Commitments are mapped to the TPC commitment field.

If an advertiser is set - the same account must be linked in the Media Campaign. This is working in the same manner for agencies. If the Media Campaign has a different advertiser or different agency as the Commitment - nothing happens. 
Furthermore the Legal Entity value will be taken into account for matching (version 2.108 and up). This means that if there is a Legal Entity set in the Media Campaign the process will look for matching Commitments where this Legal Entity is set.
Only Commitments with another Legal Entity set will be excluded.

  • ADvendio only connects commitments automatically if only one Commitment matching
  • The validity of the Commitments can only be considered when your Media Campaign has a from and until date, either entered manually upon creation or automatically through adding Campaign Items
  • If there are multiple matching Commitments available for a Media Campaign none will be selected
  • An empty advertiser, agency, advertiser/agency relation or legal entity in your Commitments will result in matching this to all Media Campaigns no matter if that field is filled or not.

Media Campaign Example 2:
Advertiser = Advertiser A
Agency = Agency A
Matching Commitment: Commitment A & Commitment B, as we have multiple matching results no Commitment will be connected automatically. Please use the Commitment Selector


Using 4.16.4 Participating Accounts weakens this rule. As soon as you enter a Participating Account as advertiser or agency the system is trying to also match those to a Media Campaign which otherwise would not fit.

Option 2: Multiple possible Commitments

...

If your chosen commitment no longer matches the criteria (for example change of runtime vs. validity, change of accounts etc) when opening the commitment selector you will see a message like this:

Record TypeWarning
Advertiser / Agency DiscountThe currently selected Advertiser/Agency Discount Commitment doesn’t match the Media Campaigns Account, Agency and or Account/Agency relation and or Legal Entity.
Agency EarningThe currently selected Agency Earning Commitment doesn’t match the Media Campaigns Agency and or Legal Entity.
Third Party CommissionThe currently selected Third Party Commission Commitment doesn’t match the Media Campaigns Intermediary and or Legal Entity.

...

When a Commitment no longer matches the Media Campaign which it is assigned to , users will be warned in the Commitment Selector.
